This organization was impacted by COVID-19 in a way that effected their financial health in 2020. This normally would have reduced their star rating. Due to the unprecedented nature of the pandemic, we give charities such as this one the opportunity to share the story of COVID's impact on them, and doing this pauses our revision of their rating. Charities may submit their own pandemic responses through their nonprofit portal.
Amudim Community Resources Inc. reported being impacted by COVID-19 in the following ways:
Fundraising Capacity
Staffing
How COVID-19 impacted the organization's operations financially:
Donations were down by over 40%. Thankfully we received both rounds of PPP loans, which helped us tremendously. We also were able to get funding from foundations that were very happy with the work we were doing as a result of COVID.
How COVID-19 impacted the organization's delivery of programs:
Since we are a mental health primary organization, we saw a very large increase in new cases, and we were having a hard time since we needed to add more staff so we can provide the proper services. Thankfully, with the help of some of our board members and other caring individuals, we were able to add more staff and continue to provide the level of care that our clients are used to.
How this organization adapted to changing conditions caused by COVID-19:
We opened up a support line, which had over 110 volunteer licensed mental health professionals, that answered calls 7 days a week. In addition, we were able to create safe environments for victims of domestic violence, by utilizing hotels that were empty, so we had them donate rooms for extended amounts of time. Another program we were able to launch virtually was 12 step meetings and support groups, which went much better than expected.
Innovations the organization intends to continue permanently after the pandemic:
We are planning on continuing virtual support groups, as we have seen that the success was great, and it allows people from all over to join. We are also considering maintaining the support line, and are waiting for grant funding to come in, so we can make a final decision with regards to that program.

Our overall approach is a community-based one where we work with communities and the leaders and institutions based there to expand awareness and reach while avoiding duplication of services. Amudim is an active member of two coalitions that meet monthly, to discuss best practices and share resources. These coalitions are adept at noticing problems quicker and activating solutions before they become widespread. Amudim provides free resources to communities and other organizations including expert speakers for community-wide events and workshops, school curricula, and Narcan programs including kit distribution and training. Amudim's PSA videos have served to raise awareness and intervention in areas that often go undiscussed: Sexual Abuse Prevention, Suicide Prevention, Substance Abuse Prevention and general mental health awareness. To date, we have produced 6 PSA's, which have been viewed over 1 million times and have won numerous industry awards.
The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
No one could have predicted the extent and affect of the COVID pandemic on all of the areas of our focus: substance abuse, domestic violence, and mental health challenges. All of these were impacted far beyond what any expert had predicted. Substance abuse increased along with relapses as a result of added stressors and lack of access to support and assistance. Victims of domestic violence were often legally forced into close quarters with their abusers. Even those who were making large strides were challenged by an unprecedented public health crisis. When these challenges arise, there is little time to respond before they spiral out of control. Amudim took swift and proactive steps to "do more with less". Our first approach was to figure out how we can get as many people access to the help need. We launched a 24/7 helpline and invested heavily to raise awareness. The phones rang off the hook for 8 months straight. We then rapidly launched virtual versions of the recovery and support groups that are so critical to those in need. In doing so, we established the lifelines that those struggling with recovery needed more than ever. Our final overall approach was to see how we could "staff up" and provide more services with less funding. This approach was two-fold: 1. Tap into our vast network of mental health providers for volunteers to help staff the helpline; and 2. Collaborate with others to minimize duplication and maximize collaboration. This included working with privately owned hotels to provide shelter and working with community organizations, leaders, schools, and foundations to raise awareness and assist as many as possible. Part of Amudim's mission is that we not only provide pillars of support, but we empower others to become pillars of support. This focus on the person in need not the provider of need coupled with our staff's combined decades of calm in the face of crisis, allowed us to be there for everyone in need.
